Transfers?

Well, lots of things have happened since my last email.

Transfers are Tuesday and I am being transferred again! Two times in a row. But this will most likely be my last area before I go home. I am being moved to Auburn! And I am now an STL (Sister Training Leader) so that's cool. 

I only have 2 transfers left (12 weeks) until I come home. So that's weird. 

Also, last week Elder Ballard came to Chico and we had a special stake conference with him. 

The missionaries had the opportunity to meet him after the conference. So that was super cool! He told us how to be even better missionaries. It was really inspirational.

Also one of my really good friends is going home so I had to say goodbye to her today. It was really sad. This was her dying picture.

Also today my zone leader felt super sick and and stomach pains. The nurse had him go to the ER and now he is getting his appendix removed. Two other sisters went to the ER this transfer as well, so Ya. It's been a weird transfer.

I love you all and hope you have had a wonderful week!

Willows

Hello everyone! 

Isn't it a beautiful day today? This week has been a pretty good week.

This week we had an investigator named Doug Ross get baptized. It was awesome! 

I love being able to witness the joy the gospel brings to people lives. It is the best thing about being on a mission. Watching people come Closer to Christ and it changing their life. 

That was pretty much the highlight of the week. Willows is very small and has been tracted multiple times so work is a little slow and can be hard at times but that's okay. It wasn't easy for Christ so it won't be easy for us. 

Love you all and hope you have a good week.

Another Transfer

Hey everyone, sorry know haven't emailed in awhile.

I am now in Willows. We had transfers and I moved. Willows is a very small town for those of you who don't know. 

My new companions name is Sister Rosa. She is from Indonesia. She's very cute and very quiet.  Sorry I don't really have too much to say, my mind is going a million different directions right now but I promise a better email next week. 

I love you all and hope you had a wonderful week! And wish you a good week this week!

Have some pictures!

Hello!

Hello everyone! 
I am so sorry I haven't emailed in a few weeks. 
Life has been crazy, and to be honest I have been a little lazy. 
To start, Chico is good. Our area is super big. We do a lot of driving. It's good though because I love driving. 
I am struggling to learn Spanish, and I kinda feel bad in lessons because I don't understand everything that is going on. It makes it a little more difficult to learn because my companion speaks both English and Spanish so language study is not a top priority for her, she just wants to go see people, which is understandable. 
I just find myself trying to hurry and study during lunch, dinner (when we aren't at someone else's house), and before bed and sometimes in the morning if I can find the time. 
Ummm what else to say... Yup I don't really know. 
I hope you have all had a good week! Love you all!

Merry Christmas!

We got to Skype with Sis. Lloyd yesterday and it was fantastic!
She is doing well, and is now in Chico learning Spanish.
We love her lots, and can't wait to see her in May!

pictures.... and a video!

¿Hermana?

Well, this week is transfer week, and I'm being transferred. Here is my problem. I'm now a zebra.... for all those who don't know what that means, I am now double covering an English and a Spanish ward. My companion is a Spanish missionary. So I get to learn Spanish! Never saw that coming. Haha.  I guess I better learn fast! 

So this last week we went to the temple which was amazing! We also got to go to the temple grounds a few days later for a live nativity. We got to go with the ward family and our investigators the Feliz family. It was so much fun. We walked around the temple before and then went and saw the nativity. I felt the spirit super strong.

Yesterday was spent saying goodbye to people. Today was spent packing. So sorry I don't have much more to say. I love you all!
